Honestly, I can laud and praise this chair, but that wouldn't help anyone. Straight to the negatives.
Not a big fan of the lumbar pillow. It does not go up and down with the bungie but the entire line has to be adjusted. Also, it is a bit overfilled. The chair itself is not the softest thing. ..... Thats all I have for negative.
Packaging wise, it was done systematically and perfect. No shifting and no dents. Minor box damage but that is expected. Assembly is not the easiest alone but doable. The chair castors are suprisingly pretty good. Was actually going to get replacement depending on how they felt after install. The arms are stable and pre-installed. The neck support is near literally a marshmallow. Lumbar not quite as much..though after taking off and tossing on pillow ended up passing out in bed with said lumbar..So pretty soft. The included key wrench is surprisingly a great bonus. The overall materialand density of the seat just feels right, albeit a bit hard, but expecting to take a while to wear in. I wont say the chair breathes, but it is a way better than some other iv used. Finally, the recline function. It just works. Only detraction point is if someone were to not pull the lever fully you can feel each individual adjustment point. Not a negative just something to note. Overall an ace chair. Would buy again if something ever happened to this one (not likely but they're there).

Vertagear Gaming Chair Review & Assembly

Updated review
I originally gave this chair a 5 star review, when I first bought it in 2020. I am giving a more accurate review of what to expect after 3 years.Overall the chair is great, especially if you have a bad back. It helps. But when you are paying $400-$500 on a chair like this, you expect things to last. So this review will also get into the Warranty. As the Warranty runs out, things start breaking. The Limited Warranty, only the Frame is covered for 10 years, otherwise the different parts are covered for 2 years or not at all.The Faux Leather - started cracking after 1 years. See Pic, this shows you about 1/3-1/2 of the seat. The whole seat looks like this. Cracked and falling apart after a year. The foam is still intact, still works great, still gives support. The Faux Leather cracks and falls off with minimal to average usage - Warranty - Not coveredMechanism - What I am trying to show in this pic is a weld failed after 3 years. Even thought this is not the working mechanism, it is part of the mechanism and is not covered after 2 years. This weld failed, broke and now the chair does not sit right.Note: I am not near the max weight limit on this chair and have not abused or over used the chair.So now I have to replace the chair and/or get a new mechanism. I did purchase a new chair. This series was currently unavailable, but still made and sold. I needed something now so I went with the next step up, PL 6000. Main difference is the frame and cushion design. The Mechanism is also different, no welds, 1 solid piece, so should last but makes the chair sit higher. But I will review that under that chair.I did call customer support about the warranty, they said not covered. They said I could purchase a new mechanism by itself, maybe as low as $20 plus shipping. But I have to place an order inquiry on their website to do that and have pictures. So will wait and see what happens there.I gave 3 stars as it did what I needed and helped my back. I took away a star for the seat cracking after 1 year and getting worse. Took another star away for the mechanism, a weld failing like that after a year should not happen unless it is designed that way
